Wallace still thinks he's drunk because out of the blue Beto says he's going to marry Vera. Is this a joke?
"Wait a minute, am I still drunk?" He asks outrageously, "Do you want me to marry Vera like we're in the 19th century?"
"If we were in the 19th century, you would already be dead!" Beto roars.
"Stop talking about death, for God's sake!" Vera begs and covers her ears with her hands.
"Vera, let's let them both sort themselves out!" Teodoro decides.
Wallace widens his eyes. If they leave him and Beto alone, his furious brother will kill him!
Vera senses this too and refuses to leave. So, Teodoro grabs his daughter and drags her out by force.
"No! Let go of me, daddy, he's going to kill Wally! He's going to kill Wally! Noooooo!"
Teodoro drags Vera out and closes the door. He pushes his daughter away and stands at the door with his hand on the handle to stop her from trying to open it.
Vera is pale and terrified: "Fathe

Josias asks Moacyr."No, they consider the case is closed." Moacyr explains, "Your father's killers have been arrested, but they have denied connection to the moneylender. It appears that this is standard procedure.""Of course, they don't denounce the moneylender, and the bastard remains free and loose, recruiting new henchmen." Josias shakes his head, "The policeman who attended me said there would be that possibility.""He said we can denounce the moneylender for some recent crime, but that didn't happen," Moacyr informs.Melissa impatiently opines: "Of course! After they killed Mr. Rocha, the moneylender must have ordered the remaining henchmen to be more careful and discreet."

Chapter 3148 Josias Is Insane
Josias visits the Rocha Hotel since he didn’t have a day off for the staff. In the management room, Eugenio gathered David, Benjamin, and Sybil. “Why is that mere cook present at this meeting?” David asked disparagingly. “Because that’s how our boss ordered it,” Eugenio replied dryly. “I didn’t say anything and didn’t call this meeting, so if you’ll excuse me...” Benjamin and Sybil were horrified to see David leaving the meeting just like that. However, when he opened the door, David came face to face with his father. “David, where do you think you’re going?” “DAD!” David exclaimed, extremely surprised. “I didn’t know you were coming!” “Didn’t Eugenio tell you I was coming?” Josias asked with a scowl. David understood who the ‘boss’ was. Benjamin and Sybil felt vindicated. Josias sat down at the desk, taking Eugenio’s seat, while the manager remained humbly standing. “Very well,” Josias began the meeting in a formal tone, “I’m here just to make things crystal clear.

You’re the one who suffered a horrific loss recently!” “But you also lost your father. We’re in the same situation,” Josias explained as he sat down on a stool. “I’m okay, Josias. Life has a way of cheering me up. For example, I’m back at the diner after Thierry decided to take his place at the supermarket.” Rodrigo smiled. “What about the photography studio?” Josias smiled back. “It’s still going to operate, and Thierry will make periodic visits. But he’s going to appoint one of the staff to manage the studio.” Rodrigo served a pizza pastry to Josias. “Thank you. Well, I hope everything is alright between you two.

The embrace breaks. “Let’s go to my office.” The two gentlemen enter Josias’s imposing office. “Any problems with Adolfo?” Josias asks, becoming serious. “Not yet, but I hope not to have any,” Benjamin replies with some sadness. “You know, Josias, what happened with your father made me think about my family, about how important it is for all of us to be together in the final moments.” “That’s true. João Paulo can tell you that better than I can.” “I think you can say it too. Vernon was the father you never had.” Benjamin clears his throat. “So, I’ve been looking into some hotels and realized there’s a demand at the Rocha Hotel in Victoria.” Josias looks at Benjamin, understanding where he’s going with this. “You want to go to Victoria to be close to your pare

But when he opened the door, João Paulo felt like slamming it in the visitor’s face. “Don’t be rude!” Erasmo exclaimed. “What do you want, you old bore?” João Paulo shot back. Erasmo barged into João Paulo’s foyer. “The mourning is over. Let’s pick up where we left off.” “Are you crazy? Who decides how long mourning lasts? We just got back from the trip!” “Not exactly, it’s been a day. Life goes on, my friend!” Erasmo replied mockingly. João Paulo remained serious. “But I don’t want to continue living this way, where fights and intrigues are the order of the day. Mr. Vasquez, you have a business to run, and I have a family to raise.” “But you found time to slap my son-in-law when he was here defending his family, didn’t you?” “Alan was extremely rude, but that was some time ago.” João Paulo frowned. “I don’t feel the same anger as before.” “So a

But now, the mourning is OVER!” “Do you think João Paulo will rest, dear?” Sofia asked, sitting next to him. Alan shook his head. “If Uncle João Paulo doesn’t want to rest, then he is truly despicable. But my dad is back in town. He wouldn’t dare to do that.” The news should have been uplifting, but the members of the Vasquez family merely exchanged silent glances. With Josias present, it’s quite likely that he will put a stop to their fighting.
